Advent Technologies will license its high-temperature PEM (HTPEM) fuel cell technology to Swiss-based EH Group for stationary hydrogen power applications.

The license and joint development agreement will see Advent integrate its membrane technology into EH’s HTPEM stack with a specific focus on developing systems for data centre back-up, telecoms, and microgrids.

EH currently manufactures stacks ranging from 5kW to 320kW, as well as full fuel cell systems between 20kW and 250kW.

Advent Chief Technology Officer, Emory DeCastro, said by combining the firm’s membranes with EH’s stack engineering, they could deliver “high-performance fuel cell solutions that meet the growing demand for reliable and sustainable energy.”
